[QUOTE="crucis, post: 163091, member: 5604"] I've only mated two pairs before and both were rather long ago :) . But for what it's worth, in both cases i made sure the male was standing on one of the side walls of his enclosure looking straight downwards. Then i coaxed the female into the bottom of the enclosure (making sure she entered directly beneath where he is, in full view). If he still didn't notice her, I poked her (gently) with a 'tissue prod' until she moved enough to get his attention... I make sure her back is facing him at all times, if not i would abort the attempt In both cases the male immediately climbed down and leapt onto her. I suspect this might work better than introducing them on a level surface [/QUOTE]
